 It's not anything good. So let me clean up the lens and let's get started. All right, what's up everyone? Back to the Monday YouTube live videos. So I was not doing a YouTube live last week because I was actually in Disney World. So for my birthday, my girlfriend got me a vacation to Disney World. We went to Disney, we went to Universal. It was an incredible, incredible time. I just wish it was a little bit longer. Oftentimes as traders, we just sit in our room, sit behind our desk, and we oftentimes forget how much time passes before we go and have fun. And don't get me wrong, I've been traveling a lot this year, but I haven't really taken a legitimate vacation away from the markets, away from trading, away from everything in a very long time. So being able to go to Disney World, Star Wars World, Harry Potter World, Universal, all this stuff was awesome. So back here, back trading, and back to the normal grind, right? So I wanna talk about a couple of things. The main topic of this video is gonna be how to find the best stocks to trade, but before we get into that, right? We have to talk about something that is so awesome. So the broker that we use is called Success Trader. Now, Bow has been trading for about 20 years. I've been trading for almost nine years. I can't believe I'm saying almost nine years I've been trading, right? So we've seen every single broker on the street. We've been using every single broker on the street, right? Because every single broker is good for different types of things. Some brokers are good for international traders. Some brokers are good for long-buy traders. Some brokers are good for short-buy traders. So as a short-buy trader, we've used every single broker, right? And recently we ended up switching our brokers to Success Trader. The reason why we ended up switching our brokers to Success Trader is because we found out that the other brokers that we were using were taking advantage of us. There was hidden ticket fees. There was marked up locate fees. There was fees upon fees upon fees. The commissions were too high. And for being an active trader that makes millions of dollars a year, we wanted to have a broker that treated our members the same way they treat seven and eight-figure traders. And that's how we came up with Success Trader, right? So Success Trader mostly works with institutions and hedge funds. And because they work with institutions and hedge funds, they're able to give a competitive commission rate and they're able to give locates that most other people can't. They have six locate sources. So if you are an active short seller, there is no better broker out there than Success Trader because no one has more locates in them. And then to top it all off, their commissions are cheaper and they have a rebate route. So let's say their commissions are 0.002 a share. This rebate route pays you 0.0025 a share. So you end up making money on every single trade. What ended up happening is all of these other brokers that were keeping the rebates for themselves have now, because of competition, forced them to give them back to you. So Success Trader has been innovating the broker industry just like MIC has been innovating the day trading educational industry, right? So we wanna be working with people that take care of our members, right? And the biggest benefit is the rebates that they give us every single month, right? So before we get into today's video, I'm going to talk about the rebates. I'm gonna show you the rebates that they gave, right? So just as an example, right? Just as an example, every single month based on your trades, you're gonna get a rebate. This was my rebate this month. So I got a rebate of $5,487 just for trading with them. So just for trading with them, I got this rebate. Often other brokers like Robinhood will keep this rebate for themselves and say, get free trading, free trading, free trading. Success Trader is more than that, they even give you a rebate. And that's just me, bow, got an $8,500 rebate, right? So not only is Success Trader saving us money on locates, they're saving us money on commissions and we are getting a rebate every single month. So I'm not sure why any active short seller would be using any other broker except Success Trader. The locates are cheaper, in my opinion, I'm probably saving about 70% on locates a year, a year. I think last year, I made $3 million trading and about $300,000 of that was in hard to borrow short locates. So saving 70%, 70% on locates is a ridiculous, I'm saving hundreds of thousands of dollars a year just in locates savings and making an extra 50K a year in rebates just by switching my broker. There's never been a stock that I couldn't short. And anyway, the point is guys that as MIC educators, as mentors, as traders, I want the best possible tools of success and the best possible tool is having the right broker, right? So anyway, if you have any broker questions, you can go to successtrader.com. I think the last video I made on the channel was I was up about $1.5 million this year. So with this broker, I've already made $1.5 million. So anyway, point is guys that to be a successful trader, you need the right tools and getting a nice rebate check every single month is money, right? So let's get into today's main topic of the video, which is how do I find the best stocks to trade every single day? So a lot of people always ask me the questions of I'm interested in day trading, I wanna get started trading, but the hardest part for me is I don't know how to find these stocks to trade. How do you know that you should be trading this stock? How do you know that you should be trading that stock? How do you know that you should be avoiding that stock? How do you know if you should be shorting that? Or how do you know if you should be buying that? How do you know anything about trading, right? So again, experience plays a very large role in trading, okay? So if you are a trader, it's just like working out. If you've been working out for one week or one month, you got no idea the proper form to use. You got no idea which weights to lift, but after doing it eight and a half years or about doing it for 20 years, you pretty much build a muscle memory and you know exactly what to look for, right? So let me explain what my process is like. Let me explain what I do to make money and let me explain what I have found that works. As a aspiring trader, what you should be doing is taking little bits and pieces of other people's processes and molding it into your own. The reason why you should be doing that is because every single trader has a different personality. Bao and I trade the same stocks, but we trade them very differently because you trade a stock based on your personality. Bao is a control freak. He likes to have his hands in every single little thing and that's why he trades every single little stock. I'm more of an efficiency type of person. I like less is more. I like more size in one stock than size, size, size, size, size, separated between five stocks as my personality, right? That's what works for me. So number one is you must find what works for you. So this is my process every single day to find stocks, okay? So I wake up in the morning and the first thing I do is I check the top percentage gainers on the day, okay? So we're not trading the apples, we're not trading the Microsofts, we're not trading the Teslas. We are trading small cap stocks. The reason why we're trading small cap stocks is because the range is so exaggerated. A stock like Apple moves maybe $1 a day. The stocks that we trade move $10, $20, $30 a day sometimes, right? So that range expanding is what we are looking for, okay? It is very difficult to make money on an Apple or an Amazon because they're not really moving and it requires a lot of capital, you know? A 10% move on Apple is $15 a share, whereas a 10% move on a $3 stock is 30 cents a share. So that same percentage, that same percentage, we're looking for expanding range percentage, okay? That's just a fancy way to say we're looking for cheap stocks because they're easier to go up or down, okay? Simplified. Now, after I look at the top percentage gainers on the day, I wanna see stocks that are in my ideal price range. So for me, I do not like shorting stocks under $2. Under $2 for me, whether it be 50 cents, whether it be a dollar, whether it be a dollar 50, for me personally, based on my personality, I lose on stocks under $2. My ideal price range is anywhere between, you know, $2 to $10, okay? Because usually what happens is stocks under $10 a share are usually scam stocks, okay? You wouldn't believe how many stocks are scams in the market, but anyway. I consider it's not the end all, be all, it's not the Bible that stock over $10 is a legit company, it's not the Bible that stock under $10 is a scam company, but for me, $2 to $10 is my ideal price range. So anything under, I avoid, anything over, I avoid. Ideal price range. So once I narrow down that ideal price range, the next thing I do is I look at the news. What is the reason? What is the catalyst for this run-up? Oftentimes stocks may be running on news anticipation, you know, they have a product coming out next week, next month the stock runs up in anticipation, maybe they signed a contract that brings a more income or maybe they rehashed news that was the same news that they posted six months ago, they thought no one would realize, or my bread and butter. My favorite type of news is no news. When I see a stock that has no news, I'm like, oh my God, it ends up 50, 60%. Oftentimes guys, stocks need a catalyst to run. So that's what I like. Not every time am I gonna be blessed with a stock that has no news, but if a stock has no news that ends up 50%, check more, okay? Now, we had to find the stocks as we checked the top percentage gainers on the day. The next step is we decide for the news to see what the news is like. After we read the news, the next step is to go to the chart. Technical analysis is key in day trading. Technical analysis is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Technical analysis is what all the algos and all the computers use to trade, okay? Computers and algos must be programmed. They cannot think for themselves, they need a program. And the program that you could plug into these algos is the technical analysis. So if you do not know technical analysis, if you do not know basic support and resistance, number one is go back to the drawing boards and learn basic technical analysis, support and resistance. You don't need to learn the fucking doji candle. You don't need to learn the reverse samurai sword candle. You don't need to learn the umbrella shooting majestic rainbow candle. All you need to know is simple support and resistance, okay? Now, after you go to the daily chart, your job is to identify those levels of support and resistance. Once you identify those levels, then you have the range that the stock is trading in. It's either gonna hit support and bounce or it's gonna hit resistance and go down, okay? So that right there, guys, that right there is about, I would say 65% of the puzzle. So if you understand everything that I said, if you could implement everything I said until now, that's about 65% of the puzzle. I would say the remaining, you know, 20, 25%, I would say the remaining 25% is probably gonna be the emotional side of trading. You know, did you miss a stock? Are you trading randomly? Are you doing this? Are you doing that? What's going on? And the rest of the equation is just experience. So the more experience you have, the better you get, but that experience just teaches you how to do better technical analysis and teaches you how to control your emotions better, okay? So up until then, does anyone have any questions? Again, this is a live video. So I'm gonna field the questions. Anyone have any questions between the top percentage, gainers, the news, the charts, technical analysis? Seems like you guys all understand that. So now, how do we apply all that to the stocks that we trade every single day? So today I traded ADTX and LVTX. So I'm gonna talk about LVTX first, okay? LVTX was a very hot stock of the day. LVTX was the runner of the day, okay? So as a short-buyist trader, we do not want to short stocks that keep going up and up and up and up and up. We want the short stocks that have made a top, have come down, have tried to bounce and come down, okay? So as a short seller, I am looking for a stock that has made its top. I am looking for a stock that is exhausted on its top and my goal is just to piggyback that trend. So as a short-buyist trader, I want to short bounces on a weak stock and as a long-buyist trader, I want to buy dips on a strong stock. As a long-buyist trader, you want higher lows, higher lows, higher lows, higher lows, you buy the dip, higher low. As a short-buyist trader, you want lower high, lower high, lower high, lower high, you short that lower high, okay? Now, for LVTX's example, this was the hot stock of the day. It made a top around $6 in the morning and flushed down to $5.50. So it made a top and it came down to support. So I want the stock to bounce to resistance at $6 and fail for a short. But if support breaks and the stock goes under support and tries to bounce and fail, that's also a trade. So the key is the top is set at $6. $5.50 is support and I want this thing to either push towards six resistance or wall and come down or break under support, try to bounce and fail. So on LVTX's example, my thought process was I'm looking for that bounce. I did not get the bounce at the open. Instead, there was a wall of sellers at $5.50, a wall of sellers, okay? So when that wall of sellers appeared, let me actually show you my chart. Let me show you guys my chart. Give me one second guys, I'll pull this up. Okay, so this was a trade. There was a wall of sellers that showed up towards $5.50. So the stock came down from $6.00, I wanted it to bounce. It didn't bounce, instead it failed. So I took a starter on that fail, right? I took a starter on that fail. My stop would have been above this candle at $5.70. It ended up testing and rejecting. And from there, $5.40 all the way down to $5.00. I made $0.40 a share in about 10 minutes. So this was a stock that topped out pre-market that failed to bounce. I took a short entry, piggybacking that trend lower and I ended up taking my profits. Now let's talk about ADTX, right? And this is my day, just so you guys see. It's about a $700 day. So let's talk about ADTX real quick. Let me find my trade. ADTX was a little bit more difficult. So on ADTX, the stock popped up and this was pretty much a pump. So what my plan was, if this 350 line breaks, I'm gonna stop out, because I'm wrong. I stopped out because I was wrong. When the stock looked like it was rejecting, I got back in short. Now my plan was I had a hard stop at $365. It hit $363 and failed. And as 10.30 came, zombie times, I took my money and I walked away and it went a little bit lower without me, which is fine, but that was basically my trades on the day. So with LVTH, I waited for the stock to top out. I waited for it to give me a signal that it was over and then I piggybacked that trend, technical analysis. Six was the resistance, 550 was the support. It broke, I shorted, it went down. ADTX, 350 was the high of the day. That was my stop out. If it broke above, that was my stop out, but because it broke above and came back down, I got back in, right? So today was pretty much an uneventful day for me. You know, made 700 bucks, but this has been a market where people have been losing their ass. A lot of people have been losing a lot of money in this market and I will link it under, but the previous video I made before I went on vacation was my broker statement. Where I show you guys my broker statement, I made $1.5 million this year in a bear market when people are losing millions of dollars. So our strategy, our process, our routine for finding these stocks and trading these stocks works in a bull market and a bear market. If you can only make money in a bull market, you're dead. As traders, I am very proud that we have survived and not only thrived in this bear market, here's the thing. Everyone's like, oh, bear market, it must be so easy. You just short everything. How can you not make money in a bear market? You just short freaking everything. The secret is guys, short sellers actually make the most money in a bull market. And we make the most money in a bull market because the moves are so exaggerated, okay? We're not trading the apples, the Amazons, the Teslas that are going straight down, straight down, straight down. We're trading the small cap stocks. So for example, last year in a bull market, a stock like DWAC went from $14 to $175. Range expansion is insane. In this market, ADTX went from 320 to 350. No range expansion. So do you see the difference in a bull market? That range of it expanding is all the money we can make. And a bear market is very hard to make money because the range is so tight, okay? This is high, low, advanced, professional type of stuff, guys, professional type of stuff. This is not forex trading where I have not met a single trader that makes money. This is not crypto trading. This is real professional hedge fund level trading styles and trading strategies that we're pretty much given away for you guys, right? So this video is actually going a little bit longer than I thought, so I'm gonna kind of wrap it up in two phases. Phase number one is I have some good news for you guys. Is I've been recording my live trades, right? So in about a few weeks, I'm going to release my live 145,000 bed, bath, and beyond trade. This is gonna be free for everyone, MIC members, YouTube, only fans, everyone's gonna be able to see this live $145,000 trade. Now, I have recorded a lot more live trades that are only gonna be available to lifetime members. So going forward, when we start to release these live trades, it's gonna be available for lifetime members only, right? So the first $145,000 trade will be available for everyone on the internet. Going forward, it's gonna be available for lifetime members only. Now, here's the thing. I have recorded $260,000 worth of profits, worth of live trades already. So my goal is to get that to half a million dollars in live trades recorded for you guys. So far, I'm at $260,000 in live trades that will be available for lifetime members when we decide to finally release this, okay? So this is something that I don't think anyone's ever gonna be able to compete with, where you're gonna see nearly $260,000 in live trades spread amongst, I think, 10 different live trading sessions. So my goal is to get about 20 or 30 live trading videos to add it up to half a million dollars and then release that to lifetime members, right? But in the meantime, the first live trade is gonna be $145,000, bed, bath, and beyond, and hopefully that'll be released in a couple weeks, right? So it's awesome, man. That's that. And the last thing is if you are curious about trading, if you are interested in trading, if you wanna get started trading, if you are a non-MIC member, we have a free mentorship course going on right now at myinvestingclub.com slash webinar. So sign up there, limited seats. You may even see a live trade in there, but that's pretty much it for me, guys. I've been kind of silent lately because I've been recording these live trades under the radar. I've recorded a lot of live trades. I've a lot, a lot, a lot of good stuff I've recorded. For guys, $260,000 worth of trades. The problem is, guys, that the editing process of me voicing these trades over takes about two to three weeks per live trade, okay? So imagine it's taken me a really long time to get these voiceovers, because what I'm doing is I'm showing you the live trade and I am walking you through the live trade with my commentary as well. And you guys are gonna see it all coming soon to lifetime members, $260,000 worth of live trades. My goal is to get it to half a million dollars so that when you join MIC, you see how we make half a million dollars live and that'll fucking accelerate your learning curve more than anything. So thank you, everyone, for watching.
